China LED three types of equipment imported parts from April 1st tariff exemption

Chinese in March 2012, the Ministry of finance, Ministry of industry and information technology, the General Administration of customs and the State Administration of Taxation, four ministries jointly issued "on the adjustment of major technical equipment import tax policy notice (hereinafter referred to as the" Catalogue "notice"). The "notice" of major technical equipment import tax policies related equipment and products catalog, imports of key parts and raw materials import directory, not duty-free list of equipment and products to be adjusted, and since April 1, 2012.

In tariff and import value-added tax adjustment of the catalogue in the 28 new projects of major technical equipment, marine equipment, solar energy application, LED equipment and other three major emerging industries has become the most obvious benefit of the plate.

Selected "the country to support the development of major technical equipment and product catalog (2012 Amendment)" of the semiconductor light emitting diode (LED) production equipment for the 3 kinds of new equipment, are: metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD), indium tin oxide, plasma etching machine (ITO) sputtering, see as shown in table 1. In accordance with the "notice" provisions, since April 1, 2012, eligible China enterprise for the production of the three types of equipment or products, and it is necessary to import key parts and raw materials goods (as shown in Table 2), shall be exempted from customs duties and import value-added tax.

The localization of equipment significance is very great, no key equipment breakthrough, there is no foundation for independent innovation. Academician of the Academy of Sciences, Chinese Semiconductor Institute of Chinese Academy of Sciences researcher Wang Zhanguo pointed out that the high technology enterprises Chinese inputs imported equipment often accounted for 70%~80% if the initial investment of enterprises, can be produced by China own equipment, the cost is expected to gradually reduce, the price can be raised.

LED technology oriented industry, especially technology and capital intensive chip manufacturing, high-end equipment supporting technology. However, under the "bottleneck" similar to the investment boom of the semiconductor industry, there is still a problem of speed matching between equipment development and industrial expansion, especially in the field of high-end equipment.

To MOCVD as an example, the current development trend of MOCVD technology and equipment is large-scale, intelligent. The substrate will transition from 2 inches to 6 inches; single machine to achieve multi reaction chamber, multi chip synchronous operation, intelligent operation and reduce human impact. These industry trends will undoubtedly raise the threshold for China to develop the device, but also created new opportunities.

Chinese "863" plan has been in support of LED major domestic equipment, the four ministries of the domestic LED equipment related spare parts exempted from tariff and import value-added tax is, from another level of domestic equipment LED support.
